Note(s): Table 1 shows that most of the respondents were procurement professionals covering about 71% of the entire population. About 20% were qualified engineers and approximately 3% had no related qualification. It's worth noting that the non-qualified engineering participants were representatives of contractors and they demonstrated how procurement is done by non-professionals. Overall, the experience of the respondents coupled with the academic background of some participants provides valuable insight for the study and is justified to form part of the study participants. Additionally, Table 1 indicates that despite the varying qualifications of the procurement players, they are highly experienced in conducting procurement activities within the construction sector
